"The book collects for the first time the writings of Gavin Wade and explores a practice that he refers to as ‘upcycling’, a process of stealing, copying, recycling, using other texts and artworks, and responding to existing conditions. Some of the texts are artworks – manifestoes, stories, statements – others are interviews, discussions, proposals." -- Provided by publisher. - Met interviews met de kunstenaar
